Description
Hamilton Elementary School is located in Coon Rapids, Minnesota. The school was built and opened in the fall of 1965. Hamilton was built adjacent to the original "Camp Guy Robinson." It was originally built to provide instruction for K-6 students.
The Hamilton enrollment area, as well as the entire city of Coon Rapids, has undergone many changes over the years. The addition of Highway 10, coupled with a new mall district and new home construction has changed Hamilton into a neighborhood school.
